Dear community, effective Friday, July 22, Caolán McNamara has announced his resignation from the Board of Directors. The Board will follow-up in due course with the next steps, including election of a new Deputy Chairperson. I'd like to personally thank Caolán for all his passion, dedication, time and effort he has invested into the project, and during his time on the board. I'm deeply saddened by his decision. We will miss his honest voice of reason, calm & pragmatic effectiveness. At the same time, I look forward to continue working with him in the community.

[board-discuss] Self nomination for Membership Committee: Uwe Altmann
Hi My name is Uwe Altmann, I’m 65 years old male, married and living in Saarbücken (Germany) direct by the french border. I’m self-employed, bur mostly preparing my retirement. I joined the (then) OpenOffice community around 2004. Mostly in marketing activities as helping at CeBit fair as long as we had a booth there. Besides being engaged in German community I did some QA and documentation on Macs. In the past few years I helped the TDF to get GDPR compliant an developing the idea of a business unit. In “real live” - with an completed education as psychologist and statistician - I did mostly data analysis, statistics and consulting, both public administration and charitable organizations. So thus I‘m kind of experienced in German charity laws, managing organizations as well as internal revenue code, especially concerning charitable organizations. I’m not a coder anymore – my last programming experience lies back in the early 90ies (at least there is some). But besides this my last payed job was requirements engineer and managing a team of developers. The spare time I won by reducing my business activities I use to do more for the TDF. Strengthen the community is one of my favorite goals. I may as well help in compliance with the German charity regulations and in organizational matters. So I was elected in 2020 for the first time into the MC as a substitute member. Since then, I developed the specification and served as the product owner of the new Software to manage applications, which hopefully will be productive in the next few weeks. Full name: Uwe Altmann Email address: u...@libreoffice.org Corporate affiliation: None ~75 words candidacy text: I, Uwe Altmann, candidate for a seat in the membership committee of The Document Foundation. I have been around with the project and TDF since the early beginning, mostly in German community and QA for the Mac version. Actually I’m more in organizational matters. Being more an administrative guy than a coder I would like to foster the TDF as organization. -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen Uwe Altmann -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: board-discuss+unsubscr...@documentfoundation.org Problems? https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: https://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/board-discuss/ Privacy Policy: https://www.documentfoundation.org/privacy
